He spent a short time in the East Midlands before being spotted by scouts at Premier League club Stoke City who signed him to on a two-year development contract in June 2011 beating off competition from Manchester City.[2] Eve made his international debut at the age of 16 making him Stoke City's youngest player to be capped taking the record from Hungarian Ádám Vass. In May 2012 Eve signed a two-year professional contract with Stoke.[3]
